An Arts and Crafts lamp - Eurekan - 09-27-2021 <p>Just finished my version of Stickley Desk Lamp #506. QSWO, fumed, varnished. Outstanding grain reveal. The originals have a copper shade but I'm not up for that. A rudimentary plan was published in the The Craftsman magazine.</p><p>[attachment=37970]</p><p>[attachment=37971]<br></p> RE: An Arts and Crafts lamp - KC - 09-27-2021 <p> (09-27-2021, 09:06 AM)Eurekan Wrote: </p><p>Just finished my version of Stickley Desk Lamp #506.

RE: An Arts and Crafts lamp - DaveR1 - 09-27-2021 Very nice. Do you recall which issue of The Craftsman you found it in? RE: An Arts and Crafts lamp - Eurekan - 09-27-2021 The Craftsman, vol. XVII, no. 3, December 1909, pp. 338-339 The basics are there but you have to do some interpreting, measuring, guessing on your own. Plans call for 2 layers of glass but I used translucent plexiglass and mica. RE: An Arts and Crafts lamp - DaveR1 - 09-27-2021 Thank you. Found it. I was thinking I would make a 3D model and perhaps a dimensioned plan while it's fresh in my mind. Then maybe I'll build one, too. I like your choice on the shade. A few details and the shade to add. https://flic.kr/p/2mv8itq Thanks for the inspirartion and information.

A recommendation on the shade. . . I used lap joints on the shade then mitered frame over the mica. I would suggest a half lap miter joint for the shade along with the mitered frame if I did it again. RE: An Arts and Crafts lamp - DaveR1 - 09-27-2021 Thanks. That sounds like good advice. RE: An Arts and Crafts lamp - Woodworm! - 09-28-2021 Very Nice, but I would have used real glass |
